At said meeting, Council shall consider enacting, and if appropriate, will take a vote on adopting proposed Ordinance 2024-13 – “An Ordinance of the Borough of West Easton, Amending Ordinance 966, Entitled ‘An Ordinance Amending the Uses Permitted by Conditional Use Within the LI-Light Industrial Zoning District in the Borough of West Easton Zoning Ordinance.’”
Proposed Ordinance 2024-13 would amend Ordinance 966 by (1) striking subparagraph B(4)(a)(6) precluding treatment centers from distributing methadone to residents on an outpatient basis; amending subparagraph B(4)(a)(9) regarding admission and discharge of residents by a secured process to acknowledge that any such facility shall not be required to be locked; amending subparagraph B(4)(a)(11) to strike the prohibition on the use of methadone in the provision of outpatient services at a treatment center; and striking subparagraph B(4)(a)(13) requiring treatment center residents to pay a temporary residency fee of $150.00 to the Borough.
Such changes are proposed based on a finding that they are no longer necessary and appropriate to the Borough’s zoning objectives.
